In Khan Younis, one of Hamas\u2019s last redoubts, the Hamas fighters finally decided against martyrdom and surrendered\u00a0<em>en masse<\/em>.

As Aizenberg points out, it\u2019s not just that the numbers are crazy. It\u2019s also that the women and children are doing all the dying. If these people are, in fact, civilians, while the women and children are starving and dying, their husbands, fathers, brothers, and sons have been living high on the hog.

the truth: Gazans wholeheartedly support Hamas. Most of the military-aged men in Gaza participate in Hamas in one way or another, with a large number of them serving as fighters. They shelter their men and weapons in and under civilian enclaves to optimize deaths among women and children for propaganda purposes. What food there is goes to the men first. It\u2019s unclear how much is left for those women and children.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, and typically, when they are ascendant, the Arabs fight with sadistic ferocity. Meanwhile, when things aren\u2019t going well, they\u2019ll quickly give in. As the British used to say of the hierarchical Germans during WWI, the Hun is either at your throat or at your feet. Or as bin Laden, who knew his culture well, said, \u201cWhen people see a strong horse and a weak horse, by nature they will like the strong horse\u201d\u2014or, in this case, they\u2019ll surrender to the strong horse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hamas fighters surrender in droves, and their photos tell an interesting story Since the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas ended, Israel has been pushing forward relentlessly to destroy every Hamas stronghold, whether above or below ground.
